Long the publisher and editor of Permaculture Activist, and a teacher and landscape designer who has worked in both temperate and tropical regions of the Americas, Peter is now pioneering a microfarm on the edge of Bloomington, Indiana. 

Phil Forsyth is the Director of the Philadephia Orchard Project (phillyorchards.org), a permaculture-based non-profit that plants community orchards in the city.  Co-hosted by Awbury, the Philadelphia Orchard Project, and the Eastern PA Permaculture Guild.
